Oizarod115 Posted October 15, 2010 Author Share Posted October 15, 2010 actually looking at the stats, probly more like 100 active members, since there are nearly 100 members with a post count ~1000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Automan2164 Posted October 16, 2010 Share Posted October 16, 2010 I would say that there are about 300ish active members... Rob L. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dfreeman616 Posted October 16, 2010 Share Posted October 16, 2010 that would depend on your criteria for active members. post count alone doesn't really do it, since there's always new people around and some jump right in while others only post a few times before leaving. also, how recent the last post is doesn't determine "active" in my mind, since again there are plenty of usernames with only a couple posts including new ones. edit: not to mention you've only been here a little longer than i have, but have over 4 times as many posts. i'd still say i'm an active member, though, with only about 850 posts so far.

What sort of demographics are you looking for? The number of "truly active" members is nothing more than a guess without data pulls from some defined time period and user profiles. Additionally, one might describe the community as a dysfunctional family. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete M Posted October 16, 2010 Share Posted October 16, 2010 it may be a bit tedious to tabulate, but if you go to individual member pages, there's a posts per day number. I'm guessing that the number is derived using number of posts and the days since signing up. though we do have a lot of members that lurked for months or years before becoming more active. I don't think it's the panacea you're looking for, but it can be another data point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geonovast Posted October 16, 2010 Share Posted October 16, 2010 Could always put up a thread for, say, a week, and anyone who considers themselves active could make one post in it, and see how many replies you get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dfreeman616 Posted October 16, 2010 Share Posted October 16, 2010 ... and see if an admin could make a sticky out of it to get more attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver88 Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 I consider myself an active member, even if I don't have a lot of posts or post often. I check in almost every day, and I always talk up the club when I meet another MJ owner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JACKED88 Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 Does being a Comanche addict who's addicted to their nightly fix of Comanche Club :bowdown: qualify them as an active user? If so, count me in. :thumbsup: Addicted??? Naaaa, not me. I just need a little bump now and then. :chillin: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mvusse Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 I'm still on CC as often as ever, but don't nearly post as much as I used to anymore. So despite having been a very active user, I'm more of a lurker nowadays. Take this thread for example: I have seen it pop up numerous times over the past week. Today was the first time I actually read it. Groups and a imagine forums as well, will eventually fade and die out. Would that happen in a few years, or a decade or longer? I have no clue. When I bought mu Suburban in 2001 I joined several Yahoo Suburban groups. One was very active with ~50 people making multiple posts a day including myself). It stayed like that for 3 or 4 years. Then over the span of 6 months it died out to about 1 post total per month, and those were usually new people either with a question or introducing themselves.

Oizarod115 Posted October 17, 2010 Author Share Posted October 17, 2010 I'm a last minute kinda guy, so that paper has already been turned in, but thanks for all the thoughts. it would be kinda cool to figure out how many active members we have, i like the idea of a sticky asking anyone who's registered and reading/posting to post in the thread over the course of a week. that would lure the lurkers out to at least say hey, I'm checkin in!

Incommando Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 Is there a way to seperate "active member" from "post ho?" :D there seem to be a lot fewer post ho's here than on some other forums I am on. This remains pretty on topic and relative, even the Pub. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jpnjim Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 I'm active, AND dysfunctional :yes: . ...and, it looks like, too late for you paper. What grade did you get? You can edit your title to something like "Hey! Active members reply to this thread", if you were still interested in seeing how many member's here consider themselves 'active'.
